Auditing a Course


Students may audit one course per semester on a space-available basis. The same tuition charges per credit hour apply to audited courses as a credit course. Students are expected to attend classes but are not required to complete course assignments or take exams. Students may add a course they intend to audit online, but to properly record it as an audit, they must submit a request to audit to the Registrar’s Office.  Students may change from credit to audit status in a course through the end of the withdrawal period for that course.  Students may change from audit to credit status through the end of the add period, or, with the instructor’s permission, through the end of the withdrawal period for that course.

An audit carries no credit, has no grade point equivalent, and is recorded as an X on the transcript. Although the course is entered onto a transcript and the student is billed as if it carries credit, it does not affect a student’s full- or part-time status. Proficiency credit or credit by examination will not be given for courses previously audited.
